This command will login using the default user name (admin) and the default password, and will
output the results to the file
output.csv in the user\scripts\bin directory.
● To export device information from the EPICenter databases on the multiple servers under Windows,
edit the
servers.txt file in the user\scripts\config directory, then enter the following command:
msinv.bat -d -o devices.csv -s serverlist2.txt
Under Linux or Solaris, edit the servers.txt file in the user/scripts/config directory, then enter
the following command:
msinv.sh -d -o devices.csv -s serverlist2.txt
This command logs in to each of the EPICenter servers specified in the file serverlist2.txt, using
the default login and password, and output the device information from these servers to the file
devices.csv. The devices.scv file is created in the user\scripts\bin directory.
The SNMPCLI Utility
The SNMPCLI utility provides three basic SNMP query capabilities, that can be used to access the
values of MIB objects kept by the SNMP agents of the devices you are managing. Accessing these
variable may be helpful in diagnosing problems with a device or its configuration, if its behavior as
seen through the EPICenter software is not as expected.
Use of this utility assumes you are familiar with SNMP MIBs, and can determine the OID the variable
you want to retrieve, as well as the meaning of the results that are returned.
NOTE
The SNMPCLI utility uses SNMP version 1.
Using the SNMPCLI Utility
The three scripts are located in the EPICenter user\scripts\bin directory under the EPICenter install
directory (by default
\Program Files\Extreme Networks\EPICenter 6.0 under Windows, or /opt/
ExtremeNetworks/EPICenter6.0
under Linux or Solaris). You must have the user.war\scripts\bin
directory as your current directory in order to run these scripts.
The SNMPCLI utility supports the following three commands:
● snmpcli snmpget <options> returns the value of a specified OID.
For example, to get the value of the object (the variable
extremePrimaryPowerOperational in the
Extreme Networks MIB) whose OID is .
1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.1.1.1.10.0 on the device at 10.205.0.99,
enter the following command:
snmpcli snmpget -a 10.205.0.99 -o .1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.1.1.1.10.0
● snmpcli snmpnext <options> returns the value of the next OID (subsequent to the OID you
specify) in the MIB tree.
For example, you can use this command to get the value of the object whose OID is
.
1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.1.1.1.10.0 on the device at 10.205.0.99, by entering the following command:
snmpcli snmpnext -a 10.205.0.99 -o .1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.1.1.1.10
